Kodaka is a delinquent. At least, that’s what his fellow classmates seem to think. Thanks to his naturally-blonde hair and an unfortunate series of misunderstandings, the boy can’t seem to shake his false reputation and hasn’t made a single friend. That is, until one day he overhears the normally-aloof Yozora enthusiastically chatting with an imaginary friend, and discovers that she’s just as lonely as he is! In an attempt to finally meet people the duo decides to form the “Neighbors Club”, and are soon joined by a number of other fellow misfits such as Sena, the busty, popular daughter of the school president who can’t seem to connect with others. Together, the gang learns about the joys of friendship through many misadventures such as playing RPGs, visiting the swimming pool or even hunting down delicious takoyaki!

If you liked Boku wa TomodachiSukanai ,then you'll like MM!, because both are centered around a male character along with 2 main heroines in a club to help them with their problems. Their motive is to fit into society, but they somewhat forget their main objective and enjoy doing day-to-day club activities. The male protaganist in both animes end up center of a love triangle and is unaware of their feelings, but MM! is more open about the feelings than Boku wa Tomodachi Sukanai.

I think these two shows have a similar sense of irony. In Haganai, they make a club to make friends...and make friends. In MM, the, ah, helpful female lead tries to beat the masochism out of the main male lead...ironic much? If you enjoy meta humor in otherwise stereotypical shows, here you will find it.

Both Boku wa Tomodachi ga Sukanau and MM! share the same concept of a band of misfits gathering together in a club. There friendship is created and love starts to bud. Both anime has a male character surrounded by quirky and unique girls. It involves a lot of comedy and pervy scenes. If you don't mind some nudity and sexual innuendo then you'll find this comedy hilarious!

The eccentric Suzumiya Haruhi wants nothing more than to meet aliens, time travelers and espers… but she’ll have to settle for the everyday Kyon instead! Along with the mysterious Itsuki and the vacant Mikuru, the duo forms the SOS Brigade – a club whose mission is to discover the mysteries of the world. Armed with a razor sharp wit and a skill for manipulation, Haruhi will stop at nothing to have fun at all costs, even at the expense of Mikuru’s dignity!

Imagine if you took the personalities from the characters in Haruhi Suzumiya and intensified them to the extreme! What you'd get would be MM! Both of these series feature the same types of characters but in MM! their interactions become over the top. Mio from MM! has a lot of striking similarities to Haruhi, from her bossiness to the slight god-complex to the comedic abuse of the male protagonist.

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya has a more in depth storyline with more well rounded characters while MM! relies more on its outrageous slapstick comedy. Both anime have undercurrents of romance weaved into the stories but MM! has more of a complex love triangle scenario. If you ever want to see what the characters of The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya would look like from a more intensified perspective than I recommend MM!

Due to his upbringing with a wrestler mother and an equally-as-strong sister who beat him up constantly, Kinjirou Sakamachi would rather die than be touched by the opposite sex. So when the boy accidentally discovers that the dreamy school idol (and butler of the wealthy Kanade) Subaru is actually a girl in disguise, Kinjirou finds his life becomes far more complicated. For in exchange for keeping Subaru's gender a secret, Kanade is determined to cure Kinjirou of his gynophobia, with Subaru's help, once and for all...

Both characters as problems they can't heal themself and a girl come and tell him she can cure him of his disease. There's a principal girl with an "assistant" (in MM) and a majordome (in MC). A lot of comedy and a little romance and Ecchi!.

Whilst i watched MM! 2 years ago i only recently watched MC, and all i could think was how it reminds me of MM! At first the two don't seem alike, one based on a Masochist whilst the other based on gynophobia, but this actually becomes a common trait as they both are trying to be cured of their "problem". Though the story telling is a little different they are quite similar in how characters act and communicate and a similar style of comedy is used in each. So on the surface they might not be the same by the time you get into one you will realise how similar they are.

Good-looking Kanade Amakusa would prefer nothing more than to have a normal high school life. But due to his "Absolute Choice", a mental curse compelling him to decide between two outrageous options such as sniffing a smutty magazine on the ground versus eating it in public, everyone thinks he’s a total weirdo! One day, the boy chooses that a beautiful girl will fall from the sky, and much to his surprise, his choice becomes reality! Her name is Chocolat, and she’s come with a message: God will strike a deal with Kanade in the form of missions that might just cure his suffering. Sounds trouble-free enough compared to what he’s already gone through - except they’re on a whole other level of extreme craziness than the choices he already makes daily! Can Kanade successfully clear these outrageous challenges, or will he be forever rejected by his classmates and remain an outcast?!

These are both fast paced comedies with a heavy emphasis on perverted jokes. They both have snappy fast paced dialogue where the jokes fly rather fast. The advantage of the fast pace is even when a joke doesn't land, it quickly moves on to the next one.

The shows have different plots, but the plots in both take a back seat to the comedy anyway. If you're looking for a school life comedy with an emphasis on perverted jokes then you should check out these titles.

Both have blondes attempting to help cure an unfortunate guy of something that is out of his control and causes him to be seen as creepy by his peers, though the girls' efforts are mostly wasted. If you liked the comedy aspect of the guy trying to rid himself of what ails him, with some romance here and there, check out the other.

In a world where magic is a reality, the young Louise is at the bottom of her class. Dubbed "Zero" by her classmates at Tristein Academy (due to her zero success rate for magic), Louise (along with all first year students) was charged with summoning a familiar; and instead of a cute magical creature, the familiar arrived in the form of... Saito Hiraga, a normal Japanese boy who was abruptly teleported from his own world?! Can both Louise and Saito come to terms with their new and complicated "relationship" and (more importantly) help Saito find a way home?
